Contact PD/PI: Salusky, Isidro B. NRSA-Training-001 (081) Training Core Abstract The broad goal of KUH-ART is to prepare our trainees to become leaders in cutting edge research in the nephrology, urology and hematology areas. Our trainees will have either a clinical background or basic science background combined with an interest in solving medically relevant questions in the KUH area. UCLA KUH-ART will consolidate existing fragmented research training programs under one umbrella and create a larger regional entity where trainees are part of an interactive cohort. The Specific Aims of the KUH-ART are: 1. Guide trainees in developing a strong foundation of knowledge in biological and health sciences relating to different aspects of kidney, benign urologic and benign hematologic diseases. 2. Provide individualized hands-on mentored research training in each trainee’s focus area of basic, translational, clinical or computational research. 3. Develop trainees’ scientific writing and communication skills for presentations, publications, and grants (see Professional Development Core). 4. Maintain an interactive and supportive academic environment that promotes the development of team research skills and collaborative experience needed for successful, independent scientific careers as members and leaders of interdisciplinary teams. 5. Develop a KUH community through a versatile instructional and mentoring platform geared to the trainees, mentors, the KUH scientific community and other research stakeholders at UCLA and nation-wide (see Networking Core). 6. Devise and implement comprehensive tracking and ongoing evaluation in multiple areas of the program by structured feedback from trainees, mentors, Internal and External Advisory Boards and NIDDK to identify weaknesses and institute continuous quality improvement. We aim to prepare outstanding pre- and postdoctoral scholars for research careers in benign KUH and allied disciplines, promote multidisciplinary team research, and expand research workforce with both physicians and non-clinician investigators pursuing or newly attracted to KUH research. Our goal is to attract an outstanding group of pre- and postdoctoral applicants who seek a cross-training experience across the research spectrum from basic sciences and translational medicine to health services and informatics. We have carefully selected 56 outstanding mentors who have a record of commitment to biomedical research training in the KUH and related areas. The proposed new UCLA KUH-ART integrates and mutually potentiates the previously fragmented research training and career development enterprise at UCLA and affiliated institutions. Ultimately, our graduates will accelerate the volume, pace, and translation into practice of scientific discoveries and innovations that improve the care and outcomes of patients across the lifespan, from children to the elderly.
